Listen "Interview with Chad Hufford"
Episode Synopsis
Chad Hufford is in the financial world now. He was picked on as a kid, used adversity to drive him, went on a pre-med path in taking up biochemistry, became an athletic coach, and let all of that background simmer together to help people make changes and stay on a path toward financial success. He’s in Anchorage, Alaska, and that’s not a typical kind of culture that any of us would be used to. He’s learned a lot in being there and brings his insights. Some of the key points made in this program include (and listen in for them all): • Optimism isn’t ignoring reality, nor is it a stepwise process. • Have a goal and a destination (and note that the goals can be fluid) • Have a willingness to learn • What are you doing (input) to get the outcomes (output) you actually want? • Consistency is key! • Depersonalize rejection - it’s not about YOU. • Sustainability over Optimization! • Think about the process, we don’t tend to scale back, but we quit. Don’t quit! • Not starting is the other place where people simply fail before they give themselves a chance • Leverage your resources - most people don’t know what resources the already have • Redefine failure - perfect is the enemy of done • Automate good habits • Chad talks about Sacrifice - I say, “Let go of the things that no longer serve you.” • What is your risk tolerance? There’s no such thing as No Risk. • Volatility is temporary ambiguity. Stable isn’t about safety. • Comfort is the antithesis of success.
